PHP - testing string for a %

[dean_e_boy]

How can I test in PHP to see whether a string set to a variable has a % (percentage sign) in it? I have tried to using preg_match, but this seems to be set to true for all strings.

In perl I can simply use: if $row =~ /$/

Any help would be very greatfully received

Many Thanks

use strpos its faster than preg_match.http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php. Make sure you use === not == to check the return value.
